Bottle, 8.5% as Santa-Bee. Malty and yeasty aroma, baking yeast. Dark brown colour, red shine. Has a little floating bits. The flavour is nicely malty with a bit of sweetness and sweet spices. Some vinous notes with a distinct, but good alcohol flavour. Some yeast in the aftertaste. OK balanced and a good example of a christmas beer.

On tap at DHVL. Brown colour with lasting beige head. It’s ok, some ok malt in mouth. From the others at the table who had it I was expecting a bit more, but as I drank it, I couldn’t really discern anything other than it was a pretty decent malty Belgian ale. Which it is.
